NCT ID NCT07747597
First seen Aug 05, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a structured nurse-led program can improve sleep quality in adults with chronic heart failure. Participants will receive education on healthy sleep habits and cognitive-behavioral techniques, alongside their usual care. The study measures changes in sleep quality using a standard questionnaire. If successful, this approach could offer a practical, non-drug way to enhance well-being in this population.

- Active substance
- A structured nurse-led program combining sleep hygiene education and cognitive-behavioral strategies
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could offer a non-drug way to improve sleep and quality of life for people living with chronic heart failure.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively small trial, and results may not apply to all heart failure patients. The intervention's success depends on patient adherence and may not overcome severe sleep issues.
